ELP Conversation Club
Language practice doesn’t have to stay in the classroom. Our Conversation Club is designed to facilitate intercultural exchange, social connections and the enhancement of communication abilities. Participants can practice English listening and speaking skills outside of the classroom while meeting other UW students and building relationships.
